The President of the University of Rochester is recovering after recent surgery. Joel Seligman had surgery last Friday at Strong Hospital to remove a small nodule from the outside of his lung.
Officials say his surgery was successful and he expects to be out of the office for a few weeks while he recovers. University Provost Peter Lennie remains in charge during Seligman's recuperation.
The 64 year old Seligman was treated for non-Hodgkins Lymphoma several years ago, but this surgery was not felt to be related to that illness.
